Main languages
- Rust - Modern language with safety
- D - Modern language inspired by C++ and Java, that is garbage collected and has excellent metaprogramming capabilities
- C++ - C++23 takes a lot of pain out of this old and bloated language
- C - Mainly for low level / embedded code, and for building of connecting interfaces between different libraries and programming languages
- Python - When performance and safety/stability is not critical
- NWScript - A C-like language that is not really relevant outside of Neverwinter Nights, but it's the first "serious" language that I learnt and used a lot
Other languages
- Bash, Zsh - Obviously, for Linux admin and automation
- HTML, CSS, JS - For website frontends
- MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite - There are a lot of alternative databases out there, but I always end up using one of these three
- Assembly - clearly not my area of expertise, but it's always useful for understanding compiler behaviour and executable reverse engineering
- Go - The language is a bit too basic for my taste, but is very easy to read and is great for web backends
- C#, Java, Lua, PHP - Languages that I learnt but haven't touched in a while
Dev tooling
- Git - Learnt git in 2011. Now it's so ubiquitous it's barely worth mentioning
- GitlabCI, Github Actions - for automated testing, code quality & coverage reports, and automated releases/deploys
- Codecov - for a nice display of code coverage
- Docker - it's quite essential now, for custom CI and build environments or service management
Other
- Ansible - For restoring a complex server in case of disk failure
- Hugo - This site is served with Hugo and a custom template
- Qemu/KVM/Libvirt - For server and desktop VMs, with as much virtio as possible (disk, network, video buffer, ...)
- Yocto - Built a custom linux disk image in 2015
